Description
Taken: February 1, 2005 (or near to that date, my memory of these dates is not perfect)It was taken in a set of color and black and whites for my initial portfolio extensions of high quality digital media. Granted now that camera's pretty outdated, only 3.2 mpxls.. The one I use now has 6.1 (or.2) but I'm looking for something with even high definition for landscaping shots and what not.. But I suppose the lower definitions work fine for close ups, or close subjects! They aren't even bad with scenery if the lighting's right

I agree with others that you accentuated your facial features quite well here--which, given the rather striking pose and figure, is quite an accomplishment.

thank you ! Rich is an amazing person, and his artwork is a reflection of those qualities. I appreciate the deeper comment towards the picture from you as well, I just hope the quality keeps up over time. It's harder and harder to find something that screams original!

You're welcome. And, for my dime, screaming is over-rated.

The contrast is perfect. It gives you that gothic feel to it.

I have no idea how to make stock photo's available. I had someone ask if I did it, and I have no problem with people using my pictures/artwork/photography for stock if they want. But I know many people do separate accounts for it. So I dunno.
Either way

You're welcome
I think you'd make a fine stock model. You really have a beautiful face and a lovely figure. All you would have to decide is which kind of stock pics you would want to post, like action, mythical, princess, etc. props and costumes would be cool, but no really necessary. A good artist will be able to add all that to your pictures. For example, a broomstick works fine to substitute as a sword...

I'll have to look into that - I actually want to expand the pictures myself to different options of these kind... Like mythical and fantasy.. I have a lot of different things available to me if I ask - a few swords, firearms, and I own horses - plus I live in a nice country area with a lot of pretty views and such - so it's getting the props and the photographer. Which I'm also hoping to work on - for DA as well as my own website. I like to push home imagination and originallity since... I'm a dreamer

P.S. May All Your Dreams Come True!!
As for me, I just think you are dreamy...!

You know, I never rode a horse (The pony I rode at the Bronx zoo at 6 years old doesn't count...! 
Firearms and weapons are another matter. While I am essentially a man of peace, I have a warrior's spirit. I trained in the use of weapons like classic swords, blades, staves, and whatnot in high school. I've also fired a few guns at the firing range. Interestingly, I don't own a gun anymore since moving to California. In NYC, it was a different story...

I've been around firearms all of my life, I learned how to shoot a weapon at the age of 8, predominantly hand guns because rifles have too much kick for me. In the military, I was in the army reserves, I learned to shoot the m16a1... But really am not very impressed with it, and would perfer a pistol style anyday. My accuracy on the weaponeer with the m16 was 38/40 but on the range and nervous it was 28/40. I wasn't very impressed with that performance, but stress and I never went well. I'd have loved to be a sniper, but the army doesn't allow women to be snipers due to the combat orientation of the job - which I totally agree with. It's bad enough war still exists, but sending both men and women to their death is truly far from civilized. Many women would argue that in order for a woman to be equal to a man in that aspect she must fight and die beside him - I just think women would create a distraction unnecessary to the situation, and furthermore give the enemies an uperhand when it comes to torture and destruction of the human mind if men are seeing women defiled before them - because human beings are usually far from humane
I believe in peace, but I believe the path to peace doesn't happen like a light switch. In order for peace one must prepare for war, whether it's with your hands, or with a weapon to put you on equal grounds. Furthermore I feel a lot safer entrusting my life to my own actions, then to the actions of our wonderful "police officers" who are usually more corrupt then the mafia themself. At least the mafia has some form of honor.
But... that's just my opinion.
The fact that you're trained in weapons, and martial arts just makes you that much more bad ass

By the way, I agree with your opinions completely! The weapons, defending oneself, everything!! 
You could say I am a veteran of the War of the Streets. I tell ya, some of the crap I saw growing up was so "normal" to me that I didn't know the actual depth of dangers we faced 'til I moved to a more 'stable' area. Don't get me wrong; I trained to defend myself and did what I had to do to survive, but it wasn't 'til later that my sister and brothers spoke and said "Damn, we actually saw bodies thrown off of roofs, junkies shooting up, gang shootings, we're involved in gang skirmishes at one point, etc. !! What kind of crap was that for a 10 year old to see?" It was almost surreal. I tell you something, though; it always cracks me up seeing suburbanite kids around my current neighborhood trying to act "street" !! Bunch of poor, misguided phonies looking to prove something...
Thanks! I bow to your graciousness, once more
